down to the grave as one of America 8

Henry Ward Beecher was born at

The passage of the bill to change the
annual terms of the supreme court from
Yankton to Redfeld will not awake more
than passing notice from the people OF
this city. Court terms have become
matters of suoh small Importance that
any deprivation the legislature may in :
hict in that line Is hardly worth con-
sidering. A fight was made in the case
OF the United States court, but it was a
fight more against the methods adopted
than tho actual removal. Our city felt
an Interest in defeating the elements
which inflicted the capital commission
fraud upon the territory and their sue
cess was the victory of principle. In
the case of the supreme court no de.
fence was made, though that court is
really of more pecnniary value than the
other. The supreme court was left us
as relic of capital days. becanse the
boodlers in their removal craze los;

In voting for the bill to remove su-
preme court sessions from Ysnkton to
Redfield Councilman Grigsby explained
that Sioux Falls did not care enough for
the court to incur the enmity of the
representatives of other sections by
making alliances to secure it. He
thought likely that he could have passed
the substitute providing for removal
to Sioux Falls through the council, but
he feared the house would not concur in
the change from Redfeld to Sioux Falls
He could have made o combination with
either Deadwood or Redfield, but did not
feel justified in discriminating between
them. Mr.. Grigsby did not care to
adopt combination tactics and IN this he
furnishes an example worthy OF emula-
tion.

Among the nominations which failed
in the senate the past session through
inaction on the part of that body was
that of Israel Green, the present agent
of the Sisseton and Wahpeton Sioux in
eastern Dakota. This is the second time
his nomination has been rejected by the
senate, but it is probable that the presi-
dent will give him his third recess ap-
pointment. His appointment has never
been considered by the Indian commit
tee of the senate. The man who gashed
the head of defenceless old John Brown
has been totally ignored by the confirm
ing power. The president enjoys the

ed by he'oommiseioners of Roiette coun.
ty to send assistance to that endangered
section and he is comforting with Gener-
al Dennis end Colonel Sheafe relative to
war measures. The cause of the trouble
is thus outlined:
A number of half breeds near ST. John
refusing to pay their taxes, the sheriff
under orders from the treasurer, seized
some of their property, consisting oi
hoises and other stock. The half breeds
reinforced by number of breeds and
Indians from the Canada side of the
line, subsequently came to st. John,
broke open the stables and took possess.
ion of their property. The sheriff with
a posse threatened their arrest, but being
greatly overpowered did not make an
attempt. subsequently Indians and
breeds to the number of 400 retnrDed
and defied arrest.
The communication sent by the com.
missioners of Rolette county states:
The situation is grave. The indiana
can easily get whiskey, and if they dc
there is likely to be bloodshed. The
whites are unprepared to protect them
selves in such an emergency. and cal
for military assistance. The Indians anG
half breeds are all well armed and mosi
of them are from north Of the boundary
line and were engaged in the Riel out
break.
The government of the United States
is bound to protect the settlers against
Indian depredations aud it will probably
be first called upon to assert its author
ty in case of decided outbreak. United
States troops are proverbially slow il
outbreaks of this nature and it may b,
necessary to rely for time upon the
militia forces at the command of The
governor.
